Hi, I'm new to the list. I have a 2002 Jetta Wagon with manual transmission.
I have a really anoying problem. Occasionally, I get very strong exhaust fumes in the cabin. So strong that I have to roll all the windows down.
It all started after I got caught in last August's hurricane in Richmond, Va. To get out of harms way I had to drive through deep standing water the even nocked the front spoiler loose and stalled the engine twice.
Since my boating incident, my fuel mileage is down to 42mpg. If I run the engine over 3000 rpm, even briefly, I get the fumes.
I took it two two different and good mechanics who said they could not find anything wrong with the exhaust system.
Has anyone encountered the problem?
Thanks,
Chris
